RESA 8 donates to Hedgesville High

HEDGESVILLE – RESA 8 IT Support recently donated computers to Hedgesville High School. A few times a year, RESA 8 receives donated equipment from the local area, including Shepherd University and American Public University.

The process begins when the colleges upgrade their computer and technology equipment. The surplus equipment is then transferred to the RESA 8 computer repair shop where it is cleaned and checked for any malfunctioning components. When the equipment is returned to working order, it is then given a new life and home in the schools that are serviced by RESA 8.

“We started doing this quite a few years ago, and now our counties have come to depend on the service” stated Jill Woolcock, RESA 8 IT manager. The equipment donated includes laptops, desktops, monitors and printers. Units are used to replace outdated equipment in the schools, and sometimes used for conference rooms and training facilities.

The RESA 8 IT Support Program serves the communities and counties of Berkeley, Grant, Hampshire, Hardy, Jefferson, Mineral, Morgan and Pendleton, as well as the Schools for the Deaf and Blind.
